    Way easier to install and use than ComfyUi, for sure maybe less options but way enought for me, nice online doc and community, better than Upscayl because we can actually download and select any model we found online to upscale.

    Chainner sucks the UI is awful not user friendly at all and upscaling images with this program is slower than a brick wall. It should not take 20min+ to upscale one image even if your upscaling a images to 4x 8x or 16 with any model it should not take 20min+ . Upscayl is way better way easier to use and much faster.

Although it is currently in alpha version, it is a very well developed software. "Node-based" image editor

I have the same processing times with the two apps, under 5 seconds to upscale an image to 4x

Overall the best application for upscaling images in 2024. Out of all alternatives, chaiNNer is the most consistently updated and supports the greatest feature set.

One of the best Open Source applications and its still in Alpha, the crazy amount of things you can in this is absurd. You can upscale single images, use the image file iterator to do an entire directory and the video file iterator does entire video's etc. OpenModelDB has so many different pretrained models. You can do stable diffusion as well for generating art, but I haven't used it for that yet.

Why is this application so underrated?

What is chaiNNer?

A flowchart/node-based image processing GUI aimed at making chaining image processing tasks (especially upscaling done by neural networks) easy, intuitive, and customizable.

No existing upscaling GUI gives you the level of customization of your image processing workflow that chaiNNer does. Not only do you have full control over your processing pipeline, you can do incredibly complex tasks just by connecting a few nodes together.

chaiNNer is also cross-platform, meaning you can run it on Windows, MacOS, and Linux.
